Magnesium citrate is an important electrolyte that helps the absorption and movement of calcium, phosphorus, sodium, and potassium in and out of the cells, which help generate nerve impulses with the help of ʟ-taurine. This maintains the correct composition of bile and, in maintaining the solubility of cholesterol, helps proper digestion of fat-soluble vitamins to make them more bioavailable. It has been found to have an effect on blood sugar levels similar to insulin. ʟ-Taurine helps to stabilize cell membranes and seems to have some antioxidant and detoxifying activity. This amino acid helps the nervous system to function properly. It does this, as mentioned earlier, by aiding the movement of potassium, calcium, and magnesium in and out of the cells that help generate nerve impulses. Taurine is also essential for the proper digestion of fats and the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Magnesium is required for the B vitamins to work properly, and is absolutely necessary for the utilization of thiamine. Magnesium citrate is necessary for growth and development, wound healing, immune-system function, temperature regulation, and many activities of the brain and nervous system. Shaky hands, nervousness, muscle spasms, and irregular or rapid heartbeat all respond favorably to magnesium.
